I have a number of servers in my room, and I'd like to have a high-speed wired LAN within the room between my servers and my desktop and laptop. My internet access is provided by a cable modem connected to a wireless router, and I'd like it to stay that way (my Internet connection setup is at the other end of the house). Are there any routers (wireless or wired) out there that could provide a wired LAN in my room, but use a wireless connection as the Internet source? (the router in my room would be connected to my house's hotspot and use that as the Internet connection for the LAN in my room).

Get a router that you can run DD-WRT on (The Linksys WRT54GL is a popular one) and use Client Mode.
